Visibility of dashboards based on role in Splunk navigation bar

In this post, I am going to discuss on how to hide/show the dashboards based on the user’s role access in a single app.

Below are the simple steps to do this.

Step 1: Create a role which should not inherit any other roles and describe the capabilities manually.

Step 3: Go to the respective dashboard permissions, select or deselect the read access for the particular role listed, depends whether that role should be view the dashboard or not.

That’s it, simple. Now log in as the newly created user then the deselected dashboards will not visible for that particular user.

Happy splunking…!
